Forced Love: The Villainous Female Supporting Character is Kissed and Cried by the Yandere Villain

Xu Wuning was getting into the conversation when she said, "Senior, do you remember that time I forgot my PPT for finals, and you waited outside for a long time..."

Before he could finish speaking, a small piece of sea cucumber suddenly appeared in the bowl.

Lu Jingci brought it over.

"The food's getting cold," he said flatly, devoid of any emotion. "Eat this."

Xu Wuning paused for a moment, then said "oh," and obediently ate the sea cucumber.

"Senior, um..."

She had just swallowed and was about to continue talking to Jiang Xu'an when another peeled shrimp fell into her bowl.

"This one is not bad either." Lu Jingci held the chopsticks between his long, slender fingers, his movements appearing very casual.

So, what happens next?

He picked up some food while Xu Wuning was speaking.

He picked up some food while Xu Wuning was smiling.

Xu Wuning glanced at Jiang Xu'an a little longer; he was still picking up food with his chopsticks.

The food in the bowl kept piling up, almost forming a small mountain.

"Lu Mianhua, I can't eat anymore..." Xu Wuning said softly.

Lu Jingci ignored her and threw another piece of grilled beef rib heavily onto the plate in front of her.

Jiang Xu'an glanced at his actions, then chuckled, picking up where Xu Wuning left off: "Yes, I still remember that PPT incident. Luckily, we resolved it in the end."

Xu Wuning's smile deepened: "It's all thanks to learning..."

Lu Jingci suddenly remembered something, turned to look at her, and interrupted them in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft: "Xu Wuning, should this beef rib be dipped in sauce?"

"Yes," Xu Wuning continued, turning her head to speak, "Senior, I..."

Lu Jingci took a sip of wine, then interrupted again, handing over the glass. "I feel like this tastes a bit strange. You should try it."

Xu Wuning took a small sip. "No."

"study……"

Lu Jingci smiled gently: "Didn't you say I was going to feed you tonight? The food will get cold soon."

"Ningning, Senior Jiang still has business to discuss. You can't delay his important business. You can talk about it later. Let him finish his business first."

Xu Wuning glanced at him.

His eyes were gentle, and he even lowered his head to slowly take a sip of soup, as if he were just offering a well-intentioned reminder.

Xu Wuning thought he made sense, and pointed to the table over there, "Yeah, senior, you go ahead and do your work, I..."

Jiang Xu'an shook his head, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jingci suddenly pinched Xu Wuning's face, turned her head around, and picked up a small piece of meat.

"It's time to feed you, open your mouth."

He stuffed the meat into her mouth, then released her face. His hand landed intimately on her waist, and he looked up to meet Jiang Xu'an's eyes.

Jiang Xu'an stood to the side, holding a wine glass, his smile freezing, and his expression becoming subtle.

"Ningning, it looks like you guys are pretty busy tonight. Let's talk another day."

Xu Wuning: "Okay, then senior, you should go ahead and take care of your business. We can do it another day..."

A meatball was stuffed into her mouth, and Xu Wuning chewed it before being interrupted once again.

Jiang Xu'an raised his cup at her, turned around and went back to his own table, glancing back at Lu Jingci before leaving.

Lu Jingci was also looking at him.

The two men's gazes met in the air, a subtle undercurrent swirling within them. After a long while, Jiang Xu'an finally looked away and continued discussing business.

Xu Wuning swallowed the meatball and looked at Lu Jingci, "What are you doing?"

She crossed her arms, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Lu Jingci, are you jealous? Have you fallen for me?"

Lu Jingci ate his food with a calm expression and spoke softly, "I'm just reminding you that the food is getting cold, so eat it quickly."

"Have you forgotten that you have a sensitive stomach? Eating cold dishes makes you feel uncomfortable."

"Besides, Jiang Xu'an's business partners have been waiting for him for a long time. If he keeps chatting with us here, it will delay our business."

Xu Wuning didn't believe him and suddenly leaned closer to him, "You're really not jealous?"

"Of course not."

Lu Jingci had a kind face and seemed incredibly understanding, without a trace of ulterior motives.

His voice was soft and gentle: "If you like Jiang Xu'an, that's fine too. Anyway, you don't really like me. I'll wish you well if you find someone you like."

"Besides, we're all friends. I was just concerned about your stomach and his job, nothing more."

Xu Wuning laughed in exasperation upon hearing the word "friend".

"Friends?" she retorted through gritted teeth. "After pursuing you for so long, in your eyes, you're just an ordinary friend?"

On the other side, Jiang Xu'an had finished his business and the group got up to leave. When his gaze fell on Lu Jingci and Xu Wuning, he saw the two of them almost touching faces in an intimate moment.

His business partner patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Xu'an withdrew his dejected gaze. "It's okay, my friend is here. I'll send her a message saying I've left."

He didn't go over to say goodbye. After sending the message, he lowered his eyes and put his phone back in his pocket: "Let's go."

The group left the restaurant.

Xu Wuning was still arguing with Lu Jingci about the word "friend".

At the front row table, slow, gentle music was playing.

Xu Zhenghong was bragging to his old buddies.

"You're saying your son Wen Zhong is better than my Ning Ning? Are you kidding me? Are you still asleep?"

He held his wine glass, his face full of pride. "My Ningning has always been number one since she was little, and she's been diligently studying company affairs at home these past few days. Once she takes over the Xu family business, she'll definitely lead it to great success."

Sitting next to him were Wen Fuzhou and Xu Zhenghong, who were college classmates. The two had always been fierce rivals in the business world.

Moreover, his son Wen Zhong pursued Xu Wu Ning during his middle school years.

Wen Fuzhou jokingly suggested that Xu Wuning should be their child bride, but Xu Zhenghong retorted, "Your brat, is he good enough for my precious daughter? You're shameless."

Wen Fuzhou has always held this grudge and wants to find an opportunity to get revenge.

Upon hearing Xu Zhenghong praise his daughter, he immediately retorted sarcastically, "How come I remember everyone in the circle saying that your Ningning has been shamelessly chasing after the Lu family's son, almost making your Xu family lose all face?"

"But Jingci still doesn't like your daughter."

"That's true. The Lu family's social standing isn't something you can just climb up to. You should think carefully about your own capabilities."

Xu Zhenghong's face darkened: "What nonsense are you spouting, you surnamed Wen! Those are all rumors!"

"My daughter is so sensible, how could she possibly be chasing after that Lu family boy every day? She's busy with company affairs and doesn't like him!"

Two people nearby quickly tried to mediate, saying, "It's not a big deal, they're just young people..."

Xu Zhenghong glared at Wen Fuzhou, stood up and was about to leave when he said, "I'm going to the restroom."

Wen Fuzhou had no intention of letting him off the hook, and leisurely followed after him, saying, "I'm going too."

Just as they reached the door, Wen Fuzhou suddenly saw something, slapped Xu Zhenghong's arm hard, and said in an exaggerated and gloating tone:

"Old Xu, look at that by the window, isn't that your Ningning?"

"Didn't you just say she was studying company affairs at home? This doesn't seem to be the case. You've even chased her to this restaurant?"

Xu Zhenghong retorted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense! My daughter is obediently at home..."

He looked closely and froze.

At a table not far away, his "sensible," "busy with important matters," and "dislikes that Lu family boy" precious daughter was sitting with Lu Jingci.

Xu Zhenghong's face turned green on the spot.

Wen Fuzhou couldn't suppress his smile, always eager for a good show. "Why don't you go and take a look? Quickly bring your daughter back, so she doesn't cause trouble for Jingci."

"Don't..."

Before Xu Zhenghong could finish speaking, Wen Fuzhou strode over there, as if he were going to catch someone red-handed.

The two people at the table were completely unaware.

Xu Wuning rested her chin on one hand and pointed at Lu Jingci's face with the other, threatening him with righteous indignation:

"Add the word 'woman' before the word 'friend'."

"Say 'girlfriend,' say it once, or I'll kiss you..."
